The best way to listen

JL Audio's Evolution™ ZR series component speakers will make your music sound its very best, whether you like rap, rock, reggae, or classical. JL Audio obsessed over every little detail of their ZR series components, so these speakers will reproduce the most complex musical passages with lifelike accuracy, even in the unforgiving mobile environment.

The ZR650-CSi component system starts with 6-3/4" component woofers that use the same bass-enhancing technologies found in JL Audio's subwoofers. You'll enjoy consistent sound reproduction, along with impressive low-frequency depth and dynamic range. High-performance 1" aluminum dome tweeters bring out the subtle details in your music so you get a clear sonic picture of all the instruments in the stereo mix. Special design butyl rubber surrounds eliminate the ringing that can plague lower-quality aluminum tweeters.

JL Audio built the ZR Series crossovers using only the finest electronic components. These precision networks feature 5-level tweeter and 4-level midrange presence settings so you can achieve 20 different tunings to perfectly match your vehicle's acoustics and your tastes.

Note: JL Audio describes this model as a 6-1/2" speaker. Most manufacturers designate this same frame size as a 6-3/4" speaker. For simplicity's sake we list it as a 6-3/4" speaker.

Priced per pair

Product Highlights:

component speaker system includes two 6-3/4" woofers, 2 tweeters, two external crossovers, and two woofer grilles

Why install component speakers?

A component speaker system gives you the best possible performance from your car audio system. A system consists of separate woofers, tweeters, and crossovers, each designed to cover one specific range of frequencies. As separate components, the woofer can move freely to deliver more powerful performance, while the tweeter can be custom-mounted in a better spot up closer to your ears, revealing a whole new world of detail. Separate crossovers are far superior to the simple filters wired into full-range speakers, so the components work together for smoother, more focused sound.

Product Research

Woofer Features

Baskets: The Evolution ZR component speakers feature proprietary cast
aluminum woofer baskets, designed to provide maximum rear open area while also
incorporation JL Audio's patented "Elevated Frame" cooling system. This cooling
technology, also found on W7 and W6v2 subwoofers, allows air to flow directly
across the top plate and onto the voice coil windings to greatly improve
linearity at all listening levels.

Motor Structure: Within the DMA (Dynamic Motor Analysis) optimized
motor structure, the CNC-machined back plate, pole piece, and top plate elements
offer a degree of precision not possible with conventional forged or stamped
parts. The ultra-thin gauge voice coil is treated with proprietary,
high-temperature adhesives and wound on an aluminum former to further improve
thermal transfer, reliability, and linearity at high power levels.

Woofer Cones: The cone and suspension elements were designed and manufactured
by the world-famous Dr. Kurt Müller & Co of
Germany. The speakers feature low-mass, mineral-filled polypropylene cones with
butyl rubber surrounds. The cone and surround are inherently well damped to
deliver an uncolored, neutral midrange without any coloration. The speakers are
also equipped with symmetrical-roll, hybrid-weave spiders.

Tweeter Features

Aluminum Dome: The ZR component system tweeters utilize a 1" ultra-light
aluminum dome, delicately suspended with a synthetic rubber, positive-roll
surround to damp fatiguing ringing and preserve high-frequency definition. A
Nomex voice coil former is used to further reduce mass.

Neodymium Magnets: The high-energy neodymium wafer magnet and machined field
structures provide a dynamically stable field for the low-mass voice coil.

Performance: Each pair of ZR tweeters is tested and matched to within 1 dB of
JL Audio's reference curve to ensure optimum system performance.

Mounting Options: The tweeters come mounted in enhanced flush mount
fixtures with silver trim and a JL Audio badge. The system also comes with
compact flush-mount fixtures and angled, surface-mount fixtures. The mounting
dimensions for each mounting option are as follows:

Crossover Features

High Pass: On the tweeters is a second order Butterworth
high-pass filter utilizing a top-quality, metallized polypropylene capacitor
combined with a low-loss, 16-gauge, air-core inductor. Five tweeter level
settings are selectable via jumper pins connected to a bank of
super-premium, non-inductive, non-magnetic, 1% tolerance Mills resistors
mounted to an extruded aluminum heat sink. Available levels are +1.5dB,
Reference, -1.5dB, -3.0dB and -4.5dB.

Low Pass: The low-pass section features a first order filter with
four levels of user-definable midrange presence achieved via a
custom-engineered, series-segmented, air core inductor. The midrange
presence levels are selected via a heavy brass jumper bar mounted on each
network's circuit board, permitting the user to tailor the response for a
variety of mounting angles and listening environments. Levels include 1
(Low), 2, 3 (Reference), and 4 (High).

Barrier Strips: Connections to each crossover network are made via
protected nickel-plated barrier strips with the option of standard or
bi-wire/bi-amp input wiring (selectable with an internal jumper bar).

Dimensions: The ZR crossover systems have the following dimensions:
Width=4.17", Height=5.86", Depth=1.696"

Connection Note: The ZR component system comes with no speaker wire.
Instead, a number of spade connectors and quick slides are included in the
hardware pack to be crimped onto speaker wire you provide.

Awesome speakers!!!

Written By Joe, Los Angeles California on Tuesday, November 15, 2011

I am pleased and happy with the accurate sound reproduction. Important to abviously properly install and wire correctly. Calibrations of eq, amp gains, audio control settings etc... Critical because the jl ZRs are in my opinion very accurate. Again pleasing at all volume levels. I've always upgraded my vehicle sound systems, with this latest Equiptment outfit to include an Alpine 910 HU I'm very pleased and therefor highly recommend the JL Audio ZRs comps!!!

Fantastic Speakers

Written By Curtis, Charlottesville, VA on Sunday, November 06, 2011

I placed these in Q-Forms prefab kick panels in my 07 Chevy Tahoe. I also have another pair in the factory door locations of my 06 Infiniti G35 coupe 6mt. The kick panel locations make all the difference in imaging and for me, enjoyment. The imaging is pinpoint from pillar to pillar and the sound quality is detailed, open, and tonally pleasing. I will attempt to do something similar in my Infiniti now, though I'm not sure I'll have the room for the 6.5" in the kick panels.

I have the good fortune of living near Crutchfield's store in Charlottesville, VA and had them installed there. The installers were all crowded around the vehicle, clamoring for a listen, marveling at the sound. One declared he had heard several other high-end speakers from other brands, but did not believe they deserved the price tag, these however, do. I agree.

JL Audio ZR650-Csi

Written By yousif, Columbus, Ohio on Tuesday, December 22, 2009

After 5 sets of components, including 2 sets of 3 way components, Ive finally found the perfect set of components. With astonishing deep bass and crystal clear highs this set is second to none, a little pricey but well worth it. These speakers can take anything i throw at them and more. I am currently powering them with a JL Audio 300/2 and all i can say is they sound amazing. I have them in my 2003 Audi A4 in the factory woofer and tweeter locations with a little modification ( because the woofer was a little deeper than the factory speaker).Audiophiles, look no further, this is the set for you.
